Anal play might be the final frontier of pleasure for some—but with the right tools and mindset, it’s more accessible (and enjoyable) than ever. Whether you’re brand new or just looking to go a size up, the key to a good time is patience, prep, and the right toys for the job.
Think of this as your beginner’s guide to unlocking backdoor bliss—without the stress or guesswork.
Start Small, Stay Smart
When it comes to anal play, bigger isn't better if your body isn’t ready for it. Always start with smaller plugs, slim fingers, or beginner beads to warm up. It’s not just about stretch—it’s about control, comfort, and tuning into your body’s natural limits.
Beginner tip: Try a plug no larger than a finger-width and made from body-safe silicone. Look for tapered shapes with a flared base.

Lube Is Non-Negotiable
This isn’t optional. The anus doesn’t self-lubricate, so a generous amount of quality lube is a must. Water-based lubes are versatile and toy-safe, while silicone-based lubes are long-lasting (perfect for longer sessions or silicone-free toys). Reapply as needed—yes, even mid-play.
Pro tip: Use a thicker lube for added cushion, especially when sizing up.

Train Before You Stretch
Don’t jump straight to size XL—your booty deserves a warm-up. Anal training sets are made just for this. These kits include plugs in gradually increasing sizes to help you safely and comfortably stretch over time.
Here’s the move:
-
Week 1–2: Stick to the smallest size until insertion feels easy
-
Week 3–4: Move to the mid-size for short sessions
-
Week 5+: Work up to the largest plug when your body’s ready
It’s a marathon, not a sprint—and trust us, the payoff is worth the patience.

Breathe. Relax. Repeat.
Your brain is just as important as your body here. Tension is the enemy of anal pleasure, so relax, focus on deep breathing, and don’t be afraid to take breaks. Use the time to explore positions that help you feel in control—lying on your side, on your back with knees up, or even standing with a foot on a chair.
Consent and communication matter too—especially with a partner. Check in regularly, and always have a safeword or signal if things go too far.
When It’s Time to Size Up
Once you’ve mastered smaller toys, then it’s time to reach for the bigger, bolder pieces. Look for toys with thicker girth, longer shafts, or wider stretch potential—but never skip the prep. Continue using your training tools and lube generously to keep things safe and pleasurable.
And hey, size doesn’t have to mean intense—wide toys can still feel amazing with the right pacing and vibe settings.
